If the unit is unplugged, lost power, or turned off; you must wait 3 to 5 minutes
before
Restarting the unit. If you attempt to restart before this time delay, the
refrigerator will not start.
If you choose to change the thermostat setting, adjust thermostat control by
one numerical increment at a time. Allow several hours for temperature to
stabilize between adjustments.
Do not leave the door open for too long so that the indoor temperature does
not rise too much.
5. FOOD CONSERVATION
PREPARING FOOD FOR THE REFRIGERATOR
Carefully wrap fresh foods: they will then keep their flavor, color, humidity content
and freshness. You also avoid the taste of some foods contaminating the taste of
others. Only vegetables, fruit and salad vegetables can be stored in the vegetable
compartment without being packed. Let hot dishes and drinks cool down outside the
appliance. Remove the cardboard packs from around yoghurt pots. Check the
consume-by dates on the products you have bought. You should not exceed these.
ARRANGING FOOD IN YOUR REFRIGERATOR
The temperature inside your refrigerator is not uniform. Some areas are colder than
others and you must store your food in the appropriate areas according to their type
to ensure that they can be kept safely.
Leave a space between the food items to allow the air to circulate freely and avoid
different products contaminating each other.
Do not put packages and food in contact with the wall at the back of the appliance,
this is a particularly cold and damp area of the appliance and water droplets and frost
condense there as part of your refrigerator's normal operation.
The coldest area, indicated by the logo, is designed for delicate, sensitive and highly
perishable food: meat, poultry, fish, cooked meats, prepared dishes, ready-made
salads, egg or cream based dishes and pastries, fresh pasta, pastry, pizza/quiches,
fresh produce and raw milk cheese, ready-to-use vegetables sold in plastic bags and,
more generally, any fresh product whose consume-by date is linked to its storage at
a temperature of +4°C or below.
